    Molten armor is an armor set consisting of the Molten Helmet, Molten Breastplate, and Molten Greaves. It has the highest defense of any pre-Hardmode armor set, but can also be one of the most difficult to obtain.

    A full set of Molten armor provides the following benefits:

    • +25 defense
    • +17% melee damage
    • (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) +7% melee speed
    • (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) +7% melee critical strike chance
    • (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) Immunity to the On Fire! debuff
    • If the full set is visible, it will leave a fire trail similar to that of the Meteor armor.

    It takes a total of 45 Hellstone Bars to craft a full set of Molten armor, or 135 Hellstone and 45 Obsidian.
